Barrowhouse

united kingdom

Barrowhouse straddles the River Barrow in County Laois, connected to Carlow town by the N80 which crosses the historic five-arched stone bridge dating from the 18th century. The village sits at a handy crossroads about 80 kilometers from Dublin via the M9 and N80, making it a popular stop for drivers heading between the capital and the southern counties. The bridge itself is the main attraction, its graceful arches having carried traffic between Laois and Carlow for over two hundred years. Electric vehicle drivers will find about 30 fast charging points in nearby Carlow, just five kilometers away.
